Trying to make accountancy sound exciting Hooly?[b said:Quote[/b] (Hooly @ Sep. 21 2004,14:27)]When I trained I was sent a few times to "do" the company books of a client which did not hypothetically have losses & debts, as it had no income!! And never had as far as the eye could see.[b said:Quote[/b] (Hong Kong Blue @ Sep. 21 2004,14:38)]If there was a hypothetical company, which hypothetically was operating at a loss and had large hypothetical debts, would that hypothetical company's auditors sign off on its accounts?
Turned out the "director" was the ex president of the Nigerian senate who was "somewhere" in the UK, as recently his best mate had been discovered in a crate at Stansted being "taken" back to Nigeria.
Somewhere this "company" had some undisclosed income of some kind but the Companies House, Inland Revenue et al accepted the accounts as they were!! Wonder why?
You're not fooling anyone mate
